Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of prism cleaning equipment, specifically to a prism cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Prism cleaning equipment is a specialized device for the efficient cleaning of precision optical components such as prisms. Its core principle is to thoroughly remove surface contaminants while avoiding any damage to the prism's optical performance and physical structure. Prism cleaning equipment typically employs ultrasonic cleaning technology. High-frequency vibrations generate microbubbles that burst on the prism surface, creating a powerful impact that effectively removes dust, oil, fingerprints, and other impurities. This method is particularly suitable for cleaning prisms with complex shapes or surfaces with tiny grooves. Alternatively, ion cleaning technology can be used. This method utilizes active particles in plasma to chemically react with contaminants on the prism surface, converting them into gaseous substances that are then removed by a vacuum system. This method not only cleans the surface but also, to some extent, activates the prism surface, improving its adhesion to other materials. This method is suitable for cleaning prisms in high-precision optical systems where extremely high cleanliness is required.

[0003] For example, application number CN202211096562.1, entitled "A Novel Automatic Optical Prism Cleaning Device," includes a frame, conveyor belt, conveyor rollers, a transmission mechanism, sensors, a cleaning mechanism, and a drying mechanism. It solves the problem of low cleaning efficiency caused by the large amount of manpower and resources required during the cleaning process. The cleaning mechanism and drying mechanism are arranged side-by-side above the conveyor belt, with the lower conveyor belt connected to the conveyor rollers. This method utilizes a transmission belt to transport and clean the prisms, resulting in a large overall size and high production cost. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a prism cleaning machine, which aims to improve the problem that conventional cleaning devices use a transmission belt to transport and clean prisms, resulting in a large overall size and high production cost.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0010] Furthermore, the prism cleaning mechanism also includes a second rotating nozzle assembly, which includes a third rotating base and a second rotating arm. One end of the second rotating arm is rotatably connected to the third rotating base, and the other end of the second rotating arm extends above the support plate and is fixed with a second nozzle.

[0011] Furthermore, the first nozzle is a two-fluid nozzle, and the second nozzle is a single-fluid nozzle.

[0012] Furthermore, a two-fluid adapter is fixed to the top of one end of the first rotating arm, and the two-fluid adapter and the first nozzle are connected by a conduit;

[0013] A single-fluid adapter is fixed on the second rotating arm, and the single-fluid adapter is connected to the second nozzle through a conduit.

[0034] Example

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a prism cleaning machine, including a prism carrying mechanism 1 and a prism cleaning mechanism 2. The prism carrying mechanism 1 includes a first rotating base 11, on which a carrying plate 13 is placed, supporting the prism 4. The prism cleaning mechanism 2 includes a first rotating nozzle assembly 21 and a roller brush assembly 22. The first rotating nozzle assembly 21 includes a second rotating base 211 and a first rotating arm 212. One end of the first rotating arm 212 is rotatably connected to the second rotating base 211, and the other end extends above the carrying plate 13 and is fixed with the first nozzle 213. The roller brush assembly 22 includes a roller brush 221, a drive unit 222, and a moving unit 223. The drive unit 222 is movably mounted on the moving unit 223, and its drive end is drivenly connected to the roller brush 221. The moving unit 223 drives the roller brush 221 to move, and the carrying plate 13 is located on the moving path of the roller brush 221.

[0036] The carrier plate 13 carries the prisms 4 in batches. The carrier plate 13 is set on the first rotating base 11. During the cleaning process, the first rotating arm 212 swings above the carrier plate 13 under the drive of the second rotating base 211 to spray water to clean the prisms 4. The first rotating base 11 drives the carrier plate 13 to rotate, and the centrifugal force drives the water droplets to move the fragments of the prisms 4, so that the fragments are separated from the prism 4 support. At the same time, the moving unit 223 drives the roller brush 221 to move, so that the roller brush 221 repeatedly brushes the prisms 4 on the carrier plate 13 to clean the prisms 4. The whole equipment does not need to use a conveyor belt, which effectively reduces the overall size of the prism 4 cleaning machine and reduces production costs.

[0037] Furthermore, the prism cleaning mechanism 2 also includes a second rotating nozzle assembly 23. The second rotating nozzle assembly 23 includes a third rotating base 231 and a second rotating arm 232. One end of the second rotating arm 232 is rotatably connected to the third rotating base 231, and the other end of the second rotating arm 232 extends above the support plate 13 and is fixed with a second nozzle 233. By setting two sets of nozzles, water is sprayed first for cleaning during the cleaning process, followed by air jets to blow away small water droplets on the prism 4, effectively improving the cleaning effect of the prism 4.

[0038] Specifically, the first nozzle 213 is a two-fluid nozzle, and the second nozzle 233 is a single-fluid nozzle. In this embodiment, the first nozzle 213 is connected to clean water and air, forming a two-fluid mixture of air and clean water to rinse the prism 4. The increase in air effectively increases the water flow velocity, thereby improving the cleaning effect. In this embodiment, the single-fluid nozzle is connected to high-pressure nitrogen gas, which blows away small water droplets on the prism 4 after cleaning, effectively improving the drying effect on the prism 4.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a two-fluid adapter 214 is fixed to the top of one end of the first rotating arm 212, and the two-fluid adapter 214 and the first nozzle 213 are connected through a conduit. A single-fluid adapter 234 is fixed to the second rotating arm 232, and the single-fluid adapter 234 is connected to the second nozzle 233 through a conduit. The two-fluid adapter 214 and the single-fluid adapter 234 are respectively located at one end of the first rotating arm 212 and one end of the second rotating arm 232, and are respectively located on the rotation axes of the second rotating base 211 and the third rotating base 231. During the swinging process, their horizontal positions do not change. Thus, in actual operation, the conduits between the two-fluid adapter and the first nozzle 213, and between the single-fluid adapter 234 and the second nozzle 233, can rotate with the first rotating arm 212 and the second rotating arm 232, respectively. This prevents the conduits at the connection between the first nozzle 213 and the second nozzle 233 from bending, which would affect the passage of water and air. At the same time, it moves the easily bent part of the conduit outward, away from the first rotating arm 212 and the second rotating arm 232, and limits the conduit on the outside to prevent the limiting structure of the conduit from affecting the rotation of the first rotating arm 212 and the second rotating arm 232.

[0040] Specifically, the moving unit 223 includes two opposing guide rails 2231, with a slider 2234 movably mounted on each guide rail 2231. A downwardly extending mounting plate 2232 is fixed to each slider 2234. The two ends of the roller brush 221 are rotatably connected between the mounting plates 2232 via a rotating shaft. A drive unit 222 is fixed to a mounting plate 2232 and passes through it, driving the roller brush 221. A sliding motor 2233 is mounted on the guide rails 2231 to drive the slider 2234. The sliding motor 2233 drives the slider 2234, thereby causing the roller brush 221 and the drive unit 222 to move via the mounting plate 2232, thus achieving the brushing action of the roller brush 221 on the prism 4. In this embodiment, the drive unit 222 is a drive motor, with its drive end connected to the end of the roller brush 221, driving the roller brush 221 to rotate.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, specifically, a support plate 12 is rotatably connected to the first rotating base 11. Limiting blocks 121 are provided around the perimeter of the support plate 12, and limiting protrusions 1211 are provided on the limiting blocks 1211. A support plate 13 is fitted onto the support plate 12, with its four corners extending to the limiting blocks 121 and abutting against the limiting protrusions 1211. The support plate 12 supports the support plate 13, and the limiting protrusions 1211 on its outer side abut against and limit the sides of the support plate 13, preventing the support plate 13 from separating from the support plate 12 during rotation and affecting the continuity of the prism 4 cleaning operation.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 2As shown, furthermore, a limiting groove 1212 is formed on the limiting block 121, and downwardly extending locking blocks 131 are fixed around the bottom surface of the bearing plate 13, with the locking blocks 131 embedded in the limiting groove 1212. The locking blocks 131 and the limiting groove 1212 are used to perform secondary limiting on the bearing plate 13. The limiting block 121 fits and limits the side of the bearing plate 13, providing limiting force on the side of the bearing plate 13, helping the bearing plate 13 to better overcome the centrifugal force of rotation, and effectively improving the limiting effect of the bearing plate 12 on the bearing plate 13.

[0043] Furthermore, the prism 4 cleaning machine also includes an equipment frame 3. The prism carrying mechanism 1 and the prism cleaning mechanism 2 are both mounted on the equipment frame 3. The equipment frame 3 supports the prism carrying mechanism 1 and the prism cleaning mechanism 2, and the whole machine can be moved through the equipment frame 3, thereby improving the flexibility of the prism 4 cleaning machine.

[0044] In this embodiment, the top surface of the equipment frame 3 is funnel-shaped and inclined towards the center. A drain outlet 31 is provided on the top surface of the equipment frame 3, and the drain outlet 31 is located at the lowest point of the top surface. The top surface of the equipment frame 3 guides the water flow after cleaning, ensuring that the water flow can flow towards the drain outlet 31 and flow out through the drain outlet 31. The wastewater is collected for secondary use or centralized treatment, reducing costs and improving production efficiency.

[0045] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
